Terry Crist

[tcrist]

Hello,

Let me start by saying that I am not Terry, I am his son Tom. I know my father was an active member of this forum for quite some time, and that he enjoyed getting on here and helping folks in any way he could.

Unfortunately my father passed away a couple weeks ago, due to complications of the Flu/pneumonia. I figured that some of you on here would want to know.

My dad was a gearhead for as long as I can remember, but above all was a family man and would stop at nothing to ensure the happiness of his children and especially his grandchildren. I still cannot comprehend that I will never be able to see him again, or have him randomly walk up and put a hand on my shoulder to tell me everything would be OK.

There will be no services, as he didn't want a pity party. If any of you feel the need to do something in his memory, the family wishes that donations be made to a fundraising event that is coming up in May. His granddaughter Bristol has a rare condition called CDKL5, and the University of Pennsylvania will match donations for this event dollar for dollar. Please make any donations in memory of Terry Crist. The fundraising page can be found here:

Best Regards,
